Hi all,

I have been using the Ultrasport GPS NavRun 500 watch for the last couple of years and looking for a replacement (it's worn out and the battery doesn't hold power as before). I am very happy with this watch and would buy the same if I could but the company doesn't manufacture them any more.
The things I am looking on a GPS watch are:
- Simple and basic with no touch screen (no smartwatch and no fancy features such as heart rate measurements, sleep measurements, steps counting, etc)
- Compact
- Waterproof
- Great battery life
- GPS functionality to track my sessions (distance, speed, duration)
- Affordable (less than 120 USD)

The Ultrasport GPS NavRun 500 I have checks all those boxes. Does anyone have something to recommend?

Thanks a lot.

Garmin fore runner 910, $30 2nd hand off gumtree. I'm on my 2nd. Ticks all your boxes.

Try Amazit T-rex. Military grade, built in GPS, syncs with Zepp App and Strava. Does HR as well. Best non-mainline smart watch.

If you're going to spend that much money, get a name brand like Suunto or Garmin.

Garmin Forerunner/Fenix series connect to Woo and show jump height too.

I had an Ambit3 ($120 from Oz) which was great until it got ripped off my wrist when the front line (un)safety broke. Replaced it with a Spartan which is slightly better.

I have an Amazfit Stratos which has been excellent. The Trex is similar with longer (20 day) battery life and Amoled screen. At under $180au it's hard to beat.

Thank you all for the replies.

Based on the recommendations I think the one that fits my requirements the most is the Garmin Forerunner 910XT. It looks a bit bulky though so I am not so sure about it. I will look more into it.
If anyone else has something to recommend it would be great.
